We both loved the Golden nugget - even though it is situated at Fremont St. not the strip it was fantastic and the night life and casinos at fremont street are great. The hotel room was spacious - nice big plasma TV. Very easy to get the deuse bus only walk one block to go to strip. Loved the pool and the H2O bar - it was spacious enough. The buffet - we loved that and you get coupons when you check in so you can eat very cheap. Only one complaint - no fridge in room.

What an experience. We stayed in a spa suite, it really was unbelievable, better than the other top rooms we have stayed in at other hotels. I was a little worried at first, not being in the center of everything, but I really enjoy this location better. The room has floor to ceiling windows on both floors of the suite, a large whirlpool bath and a steam shower. I think we had 4 tvs and 2 or 3 bathrooms (we paid 275 a night). The best part was the customer service. Cally, the pool manager is so nice, and I really recommend renting one of their cabanas for 175.00, it is well worth it, very private and it is really hooked up w/a tv, fresh fruit, water, and personal waitress. (make sure to reserve ahead, they were sold out when we stayed, but I had made a reservation in advance) The waterslide is awesome and so is the aquarium. Everyone there was super friendly. We also got massages at the spa, we both agreed they were excellent. We will be staying there again.

This was my first time actually staying downtown in Vegas. I have of course visited downtown and seen the Freemont Experience and had even eaten in the Golden Nugget. I have to say I was quite impressed not only with the Nugget but staying down town. As mentioned by other, the Golden Nugget is the gem of downtown but if you choose to go elsewhere you don't need to drive or walk a mile the other hotels and casinos are right next door.

The Nugget was nice enough to comp all of my meals while I was there and upgraded us to a gold level room. You had to use your room key to even access the gold level. They had snacks and bottled water waiting for you by the elevators. The rooms where oversized and you could get lost in the bathroom. Two sinks the closet in the bathroom and the TV in the mirror was classic. The show was very large and had a show head that made you feel like you were in a tropical rain shower!

I am one of those that don't usually give 5 stars but the Nugget earned this rating. I would have no hesitation staying there again.

We had a great time staying at the golden nugget. The people were good, the pool was great. But get to the pool early, it fills up fast. Fremont street is really cool at night. Check out Ellis Island just off the strip, fun place.
